Router node
1. SSH to the EVE and login as root, from cli and create image directory on the EVE’s /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu, this example is for first image in the table above. It is vios L3 router image. Per our image naming table we have to create image folder starting with vios-.
mkdir /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/vios-adventerprisek9-m.SPA.159-3.M6
2. Upload the downloaded image vios-adventerprisek9-m.spa.159-3.m6.qcow2 to the EVE /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/vios-adventerprisek9-m.SPA.159-3.M6/ folder using for example FileZilla or WinSCP.
3. From the EVE cli, go to newly created image folder.
cd /opt/unetlab/addons/qemu/vios-adventerprisek9-m.SPA.159-3.M6
4. Rename original filename to virtioa.qcow2
mv vios-adventerprisek9-m.spa.159-3.m6.qcow2 virtioa.qcow2
5. Fix permissions:
/opt/unetlab/wrappers/unl_wrapper -a fixpermissions
